Re: Form of the week: Saudade


Time Travel


I don’t let myself think too long
My mind drifts to my childhood
         … Age of innocence

I won’t let myself dwell too often
About happy days gone by
         … And those dark times

I keep myself busy with activities
So I won’t remember the periods
         … When we kept secrets

I can’t let myself wish too much
That the world was truly innocent then
         … I know it wasn’t
